Description
The L6747C is a flexible, high-frequency dual-
driver specifically designed to drive N-channel
MOSFETs connected in synchronous-rectified
buck topology.
Combined with ST PWM controllers, the driver
allows the implementation of complete voltage
regulator solutions for modern high-current CPUs
and for DC-DC conversion in general.
The L6747C embeds high-current drivers for both
high-side and low-side MOSFETS. The device
accepts a flexible power supply of 5 V to 12 V.
This allows optimization of the high-side and low-
side gate-drive voltage to maximize system
efficiency.
Anti shoot-through management prevents the
high-side and low-side MOSFETs from
conducting simultaneously and, combined with
adaptive dead-time control, minimizes the LS
body diode conduction time.
The L6747C features preliminary OV protection to
protect the load from dangerous overvoltage due
to MOSFET failures at startup.
The driver is available in a VFDFPN8 3x3 mm
package.

4 Device description and operation
The L6747C provides high-current driving control for both high-side and low-side N-channel
MOSFETs, connected as step-down DC-DC converters and driven by an external PWM
signal. The integrated high-current drivers allow the use of different types of power
MOSFETs (also multiple MOS to reduce the equivalent RDS(on)), maintaining fast switching
transition. The driver for the high-side MOSFET uses the BOOT pin for supply and the
PHASE pin for return. The driver for the low-side MOSFET uses the VCC pin for supply and
the PGND pin for return.
The driver includes anti-shoot-through and adaptive dead-time control to minimize low-side
body diode conduction time, maintaining good efficiency and eliminating the need for
Schottky diodes. When the high-side MOSFET turns off, the voltage on its source begins to
fall; when the voltage falls below the proper threshold, the low-side MOSFET gate drive
voltage is suddenly applied. When the low-side MOSFET turns off, the voltage at the LGATE
pin is sensed. When it drops below the proper threshold, the high-side MOSFET gate drive
voltage is suddenly applied. If the current flowing in the inductor is negative, the source of
the high-side MOSFET never drops. To allow the low-side MOSFET to turn on even in this
case, a watchdog controller is enabled. If the source of the high-side MOSFET does not
drop, the low-side MOSFET is switched on, allowing the negative current of the inductor to
recirculate. This mechanism allows the system to regulate even if the current is negative.
Before VCC goes above the UVLO threshold, the L6747C keeps both the high-side and low-
side MOSFETS firmly OFF. Then, after the UVLO has been crossed, the EN and PWM
inputs take control over the driver’s operations.
The EN pin enables the driver. If low, it keeps all MOSFETs OFF (HiZ) regardless of the
status of PWM. When EN is high, the PWM input takes control. If externally set within the
HiZ window, the driver enters an HiZ state and both MOSFETS are kept in an OFF state
until PWM exits the HiZ window (see Figure 4).
After the UVLO threshold has been crossed and while in HiZ, the preliminary OV protection
is activated. If the voltage sensed through the PHASE pin goes above about 1.8 V, the low-
side MOSFET is latched ON in order to protect the load from dangerous overvoltage. The
driver status is reset from a PWM transition.
Driver power supply, as well as power conversion input, are flexible: 5 V and 12 V can be
chosen for high-side and low-side MOSFET voltage drive.

4.1 High-impedance (HiZ) management
The driver is capable of managing a high-impedance conditions by keeping all MOSFETs in
an OFF state. This is achieved in two different ways:
If the EN signal is pulled low, the device keeps all MOSFETs OFF regardless of the
PWM status.
When EN is asserted, if the PWM signal is externally set within the HiZ window for a
time greater than the hold-off time, the device detects the HiZ condition and turns off all
the MOSFETs. The HiZ window is defined as the PWM voltage range between
VPWM_HIZ_H = 1.6 V and VPWM_HIZ_L = 1.3 V.
The device exits from the HiZ state after any PWM transition. See Figure 4 for details about
HiZ timing.
The implementation of the high-impedance state allows the controller connected to the
driver to manage the high-impedance state of its output, preventing the generation of nega-
tive undershoot on the regulated voltage during the shutdown stage. Also, different power
management states may be managed, such as pre-bias startup.
4.2 Preliminary OV protection
When VCC exceeds its UVLO threshold while the device is in HiZ, the L6747C activates the
preliminary OV protection.
The intent of this protection feature is to protect the load during system startup, especially
from high-side MOSFET failures. In fact, VRM, and more generally PWM, controllers, have a
12 V bus-compatible turn-on threshold and are non-operative if VCC is below the turn-on
thresholds (which is in the range of about 10 V). In cases of high-side MOSFET failure, the
controller does not recognize the overvoltage until VCC = ~10 V (unless other special fea-
tures are implemented). However, in this case the output voltage is already at the same volt-
age (~10 V) and the load (a CPU in most cases) is already burnt.
The L6747C bypasses the PWM controller by latching on the low-side MOSFET if the
PHASE pin voltage exceeds 2 V during the HiZ state. When the PWM input exits from the
HiZ window, the protection is reset and the control of the output voltage is transferred to the
controller connected to the PWM input.
Since the driver has its own UVLO threshold, a simple way to provide protection to the out-
put in all conditions when the device is OFF is to supply the controller through the 5 VSB bus.
5 VSB is always present before any other voltage and, in case of high-side short, the low-
side MOSFET is driven with 5 V. This ensures reliable protection of the load.
Preliminary OV is active after UVLO and while the driver is in an HiZ state, and it is disabled
after the first PWM transition. The controller must manage its output voltage from that
moment on.
4.3 BOOT capacitance design
The bootstrap capacitor value should be selected to obtain a negligible discharge due to the
turning on of the high-side MOSFET. It must provide a stable voltage supply to the high-side
driver during the MOSFET turn-on, and minimize the power dissipated by the embedded
boot diode. Figure 5 illustrates some guidelines on how to select the capacitance value for
the bootstrap according to the desired discharge, and the selected MOSFET.
Device description and operation L6747C
10/15 Doc ID 17127 Rev 1
To prevent the bootstrap capacitor from overcharging as a consequence of large negative
spikes, an external series RBOOT resistor (in the range of few ohms) may be required in
series with the BOOT pin.
Figure 5. Bootstrap capacitance design
4.4 Power dissipation
The L6747C embeds high current drivers for both high-side and low-side MOSFETs. It is
therefore important to consider the power that the device is going to dissipate in driving
them in order to avoid exceeding the maximum junction operating temperature.
Two main factors contribute to device power dissipation: bias power and driver power.
Device power (PDC) depends on the static consumption of the device through the
supply pins and is easily quantifiable as follows:
Driver power is the power needed by the driver to continuously switch the external
MOSFETs ON and OFF. It is a function of the switching frequency and total gate
charge of the selected MOSFETs. It can be quantified considering that the total power
PSW dissipated to switch the MOSFETs is influenced by three main factors: external
gate resistance (when present), intrinsic MOSFET resistance, and intrinsic driver
resistance. This last factor is the important one to be determined to calculate the device
power dissipation.
The total power dissipated to switch the MOSFETs is:
When designing an application based on the L6747C it is recommended to take into
consideration the effect of external gate resistors on the power dissipated by the driver.
External gate resistors help the device to dissipate the switching power since the same
power PSW is shared between the internal driver impedance and the external resistor,
resulting in a general cooling of the device.
Referring to Figure 6, a classic MOSFET driver can be represented by a push-pull output
stage with two different MOSFETs: a P-MOSFET to drive the external gate high, and an N-
MOSFET to drive the external gate low (with their own RDS(on): Rhi_HS, Rlo_HS, Rhi_LS,
Rlo_LS). The external power MOSFET can be represented in this case as a capacitance
(CG_HS, CG_LS) that stores the gate-charge (QG_HS, QG_LS) required by the external power

MOSFET to reach the driving voltage (PVCC for HS and VCC for LS). This capacitor is
charged and discharged at the driver switching frequency FSW.
The total power PSW is dissipated among the resistive components distributed along the
driving path. According to the external gate resistance and the power MOSFET intrinsic
gate resistance, the driver dissipates only a portion of PSW as follows:
The total power dissipated from the driver can then be determined as follows:

4.5 Layout guidelines
L6747C provides driving capability to implement high-current step-down DC-DC converters.
The first priority when placing components for these applications should be given to the
power section, minimizing the length of each connection and loop as much as possible. To
minimize noise and voltage spikes (as well as EMI and losses) power connections must be
part of a power plane, and in any case constructed with wide and thick copper traces. The
loop must be minimized. The critical components, such as the power MOSFETs, must be
close to each other. However, some space between the power MOSFETs is required to
assure good thermal cooling and airflow.
Traces between the driver and the MOSFETS should be short and wide to minimize the
inductance of the trace, which in turn minimizes ringing in the driving signals. Moreover, the
VIA count should be minimized to reduce the related parasitic effect.
The use of a multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended.
Small signal components and connections to critical nodes of the application, as well as
bypass capacitors for the device supply, are also important. Place the bypass capacitor

(VCC, PVCC and BOOT capacitors) close to the device with the shortest possible loop,
using wide copper traces to minimize parasitic inductance.
Systems that do not use Schottky diodes in parallel with the low-side MOSFET might show
large negative spikes on the PHASE pin. This spike can be limited, as can the positive spike,
but has an additional consequence: it causes the bootstrap capacitor to be overcharged.
This extra charge can cause, in the worst case condition of maximum input voltage and
during particular transients, that boot-to-phase voltage exceeds the absolute maximum
ratings causing device failures. It is therefore suggested in this cases to limit this extra
charge by adding a small RBOOT resistor in series with the boot capacitor. The use of RBOOT
also contributes in the limitation of the spike present on the BOOT pin.
For heat dissipation, place the copper area under the IC. This copper area may be
connected by internal copper layers through several VIAs to improve thermal conductivity.
The combination of copper pad, copper plane and VIAs under the driver allows the device to
achieve its best thermal performance.
